THE ZERO WHITE HOUSE AS A TARGET-RICH ENVIRONMENT

Big '0' Zero

Thursday, 04 December 2008

Are we having fun yet? We might as well try, amidst the multiple looming disasters awaiting our economy and our country - not to mention a lot of other countries as well - with the Zero White House running Washington. One way to do so is to look at Zero's new home as a target-rich environment.

Here's target number one. "Zero," of course, is an alternate name for the individual we called NMP - Not My President - shortly after November 4. Now it's turning out that vast multitudes don't look upon him as their president either, due to this crazy controversy over his birth certificate.

Crazy because producing a verifiably genuine birth certificate should be the simplest thing in the world to do, instantly squashing the controversy. Yet Zero won't produce it, allowing the issue to metastasize to the point of full page ads in the Chicago Tribune.

The ad sums up the issue, and it is a serious one. Constitutionally restricting the presidency to natural-born citizens, thus excluding naturalized citizens is, for example, the one single barrier preventing Arnold Schwarzenegger from running for president.

That Zero refuses to release his actual birth certificate is proof for many that he is not natural born but naturalized instead. Yet the two principal drivers of the controversy, my good buddies Joseph Farah and Jerry Corsi of WorldNetDaily, are not convinced of this.

They suspect that the real truth Zero is hiding may be even more bizarre than what everybody thinks. I've known Joseph for many years and the details of what he told me is for him to reveal when he chooses, not me. I can tell you it is OMG wild.

There is, however, a great upside to the mystery never being solved, the truth never revealed, for Zero to continue stonewalling. For then, Americans in the growing millions would view his presidency as illegal and illegitimate, and owe him neither allegiance nor obedience. This would give them the moral resolve to resist the fascism of his laws, executive orders, and regulations.

Which brings us to target number two. Zero's willingness to sacrifice American prosperity on the altar of Global Warming should be the gift that keeps on giving to Republicans.

When he spoke via video to the "Governors' Global Climate Summit" on November 18, Zero sounded like an Algore lunatic:

"The science is beyond dispute and the facts are clear. Sea levels are rising. Coastlines are shrinking. We've seen record drought, spreading famine, and storms that are growing stronger with each passing hurricane season."

Every bit of this is nonsense. Either he is a scientific illiterate, as stupid as Algore, or is using the glowarm con as a rationale to expand government power - or maybe all three. Whichever, his war upon "fossil fuels" such as oil and coal could not be better designed to ruin any chances of economic recovery.

Which gives Republicans the absolute perfect opportunity to target Zero and the other glowarmer nutballs in Congress at every moment the economy is not rebounding while we are shivering and suffering with global cooling - for in fact, due to the lack of the sun's magnetic activity, the earth is cooling, not warming.

This segways into a third target: Zero's anti-capitalist pro-government boondoggle bias. He has no understanding of what is actually required for the "economic recovery" he boasts of achieving: real jobs, rather than make-work government subsidized "green jobs; reducing regulatory barriers rather than raising them; getting the government out of the way of entrepreneurs and small business rather than getting more and more in the way; producing and using more energy rather than less.

It's not that he's a "Marxist" or "socialist." More importantly, he's an economic illiterate as much as he's a scientific illiterate. He hasn't a clue of how businesses work, having neither run or worked for one.

Thus his entire economic program will consist of handing out government subsidies to those with political connections - "political entrepreneurs." Another golden opportunity for Republicans to skewer him for all the resultant corruption and failure to actually improve the economy.

A fourth target: the coming lack of respect for America throughout the world. Zero voters want the world to love us - and they are going to be rudely surprised to find out what counts in the world is respect, not love. Under Zero, country after country will feel free to ignore America's interests or desires.
